SECTION 5: MAINTENANCE
CleaningLubricating
Use a good solvent to clean the nose assembly of the stapler. Always be sure that the stapler is dry before using it again.
Do not allow dust, chips, sand, etc. into the air connectors or into the body of the stapler; this may result in leaks and dam- age to the stapler and the air couplings.
Never use gasoline or other flamma- ble liquids to clean this tool. Vapors in the tool may ignite, causing the tool to explode. Ignoring this warning may lead to serious personal injury or even death!
Special oil has been included with your new Grizzly stapler to help maintain its useful life. Place two to three drops of oil in the stapler air inlet (as shown in Figure 9) before every use, or after 2 hours of continuous use.
Figure 9. Lubricating stapler via air inlet.
Wipe off any excess oil near the stapler exhaust to avoid dust build-up. When the oil that was included with the stapler has been completely used, replace with Grizzly Model G2820 Pneumatic Tool Oil.
Another option to manual oiling would be to install a lubricator in your air compres- sor line. If your air compressor line already has a lubricator, then regular lubrication of your stapler will not be necessary. Just make sure there is always oil in the lubricator.
